About this book
Mina Loy wrote some of the boldest verse of the modernist era, and this collection gathers the work that made her a favorite of fellow poets and a puzzle to critics. An English painter who moved through Futurist Florence, wartime New York, and Paris between the wars, Loy brought a designer's eye and a satirist's nerve to the page. Her poems dissect love, motherhood, desire, and the pretensions of the men around her in language that is angular, witty, and unafraid of the body. The long sequence "Songs to Joannes" and the pieces later drawn together as Lunar Baedeker show why Ezra Pound singled her out.
